Think you need to tidy up the underside it should look like this :)

sorry, but why would the under side of his car need to be painted black on day 1 of a project. B)

Cheers for all the comments B)

Well today i got the heads all off and packaged up...then sent them away to Alan Jeffery to go over then fit to my new block :) i removed the coilovers from the front and changed the springs from 5kg to 6kg, tomorrow will be putting the 5kg springs on to the back shockers. Got the brakes all bled and a H-brace fitted also, but the H-brace didnt fit great....had to slot one of the hole a bit to get it fitted!! has anyone else had this problem??

I used to have one fitted and had similar issues I didnt have to slot the holes but it was a tight fit, I loosened the inner ALK bolts right off and the rear attachment to the arm even then it was tight. In the end I removed it as I expected to have to remove the gearbox frequently and didnt want the hassle of a geometry set up each time the box came out as you have to disturb the ALK to remove the brace ;)

I havnt actually seen any road works where this car is driven but could make an interesting idea ;)

Well busy day today, removed the rear shocks and changed the springs to 5kg ones, totally re-cooped the rear brakes.....they were all rusted up so cleaned up the discs and sprayed them with clear heat paint, re-cooped the calipers and got it all nice!! removed the front bumper and removed the induction kit from under the bumper along with the intercooler pipes etc.
